ject to this amendment,-not even the gentle.
man from Portland (Mr. Looneyl philan-
thropist as he was.
Mr.. Wright hoped that this amendment
would not prevail; he thought gentlemen
ought not to stir up this matter again, as it
had been once settled by the House.
Mr.. Walton favored the amendment, in
good faith. He thought it necessary that this
exception should be made; otherwise he
thought the bill ought to be entitled bill to
prevent an honest woman from obtaining an
honest living by honest work.
Mr.. Noble said that this amendment was
simply an amendment to strike women out of
the bill. under another guise. Everybody
knew that the great mass of women in our
textile manufactures had persons dependent
upon them for support.
Mr.. Powers thought this amendment was
simply to reach direction BY indirsction. 1t
would practically kill the bill, though he did
not assert that it was so intended.
Mr.. Lyons thought thxt if gentlemen would
expend their eloquence in trying to raise the
wages of women, instead of wishing to pro-
tect them so much by defeating this bill, they
would make better use of their time.
Mr.. Pattangall called for the yeas and
nays, and the House ordered them.
The amendment was then lost BY the fol.
lowing vote:

THE Advertiser this morning is

reminds us of the wide awake cities
aud towns of the West that we read
about in the papers. Here what it
says:

to some extent, a Bridge and aRail
road Centre somewhat, too, let her
citizens not cease their efforts until
they shall make her in time, per-
haps, a Railroad Centre to equal
indianapolis, Ind, or Kansas City,
Mo-, or the cities of st. Paul and
Minneapolis, or even as st. Louis or
Chicago and such like, or as the
Monument City even, still nearer
to us. The young city of st. Paul,
Mimi, has to-day no less than six
distinct lines of railroad running
from there to Chicago alone, to say
nothing at all of its numerous other
roads running out West and up to
the head of Lake Superior at Duluth
and the city of Superior, &C.; hun
dreds of trains running in and out
of there in all directions every day,
and she yet but an infant compare

population of 10000 or so, and

We hope SO. But we have sung
similar music before on paper, but
without effect. If we could tie An
napolis on to Baltimore's apron
strings, or "catch on" to her enter
prising(?) coat tail, there might be
some hope of her becoming a one
horse-railrOad, in the distent future.
In a few more generations her in
habitants may realize some of these
things-but not to-day-some other
day. We hope SO at least.

ACCORDING to the Washington
correspondent of the Globe Democrat,
the President now listens with court
esy and attention, where formerly
he manifested indifference or inn
patience. Visitors are invited to sit
down, where formerly they were al
lowed to stand, pending a speedy
dismissal. Instead of meeting with
the brusque reception formerly ac-
corded to expressions of opinion as
to matters Of party policy, Demo-
Gratis who are inclined To favor the
President with their views, are lis
tened to with respect and interest.
The Globe Democrats correspondent
finds the change in the Presidents
manner salmost startling Other
observers have noticed and reported
the same thing.
The New York Sun attributes
Mr.. Cleyeland's change Of manner
towards his guests at the White
House due to the gentle but constant
and potent influence Of woman Of
tact and influence.

II is hoped that Sergeant Smith,
who has charge Of the cell in which
the late Thomas Judson Cluverius
was confined, will not be governed
by the desires and opinions of the
friends of the deceased as to "shut-

public gaze, but will do his duty
and make known anything and all

The body of headless man was
discovered in a trunk in the Adam
Express Company's office yesterday,
which presented a most shocking
sight. The trunk had been shipped
from New York several days ago to
Baltimore, directed to John A.
Wilson, " and to be called for. The
trunk with its contents were turned
over to the police authorities for in
vestigation. The man had evidently
been murdered and his head, arms
and legs sawed off in order to get 1T
in the trunk. This seems to be a
new mode of getting rid of a MUIR
dered body, as it.is the second case
of the kind within few months,
that has come to light.

The Founding Apple.

This apple. though quite widely known.
has never found much acceptance as
variety suitable for extensive cultivation
as a market fruit. Yet the tree is thrifty
and productive. and the fruit large and of
fine quality, either for desert or cooking.
The flavor is high. with enough acid for
piouancy. In Massachusetts,. where it
originated, it is a September and October
apple but in Northern New England it
keeps well into the winter. Very few, if
any, true, Iron clad" apples have ever
been produced in New England, but the
Founding comes very close to one. 1t is
decidedly more hardy against severe cold

BABY SHOES.

A mother IL weeping quiet tears
Over babys WORKOUT shoe;
A treasured atom these twenty years,
She holds IL dear, as mothers do.
She weeps to think how her baby died,
Leaving nfes glowing path untrod;
Her boy, her promised joy and PRIDE
Twas hard 10 give him back to God.
Another mother IA crouching low
Over a babys worn out shoe,
Burning and bitter her tears that flow,
burning as caustic, bitter as rue.
Her boy lived on to mans estate.
Best like the other, he had died;
Nor then might this doting mother pirate
OF promise lost. OF JOY and pride.
Oft on his pinky. pattering feet.
AS dew on rose leaves, kisses fell;
Would God that they trod the golden street,
And not the path that leads to hell
Oh mother that bore and nursed and reared.
That fondly loved and child aud taught,
That labored and prayed and hoped and reared,
You see your life work worse than naught. .
Whose disappoin ment is half so deepi
Who so burns for anothers shamel
The bows wild sowings for her to reap;
She fam would swear to all the blame.
Yes, for the torture is made complete
By dumb remOrse for unguessed wrong.
She would face for him the judgment seat
Without her boy heaven gives no song.
Oh. son that once wore that baby shoe,
You've wrecked your mpther's JOY and pride,
You've broken her heart that beat for you;
she enyies her whose baby died
